Don,
    I never even bother with Mr. Wizard.  In WinXP & Vista, just about 
everything you need will be installed automatically when Windows installs 
the driver for your NIC (Network Interface Card).  In most cases, it's just 
plug it in and go.  If anything needs tweaking, I don't hesitate to jump in 
there and reset the info in my TCP/IP area.  You just need to know what the 
settings should be in advance.

    Chances are better that Williams is set up the way I described above, 
without any 'helper' apps to get in the way.

Peace,
G
